About this product

Product Information

Director Peter Brook's faithful adaptation of William Golding's 1954 novel stars James Aubrey and Tom Chapin as antagonists Ralph and Jack, respectively. When a plane carrying 30-odd British schoolboys out of a war zone crashes on an island, all the adults are killed. The boys organize for survival, naming Ralph as their chief, in charge of providing fire and shelter. Jack is designated to lead a group of boys to hunt the wild pigs that roam the island. Almost inevitably, as time passes, the two boys, representatives of civilization and savagery, begin a deadly struggle for dominance. The frequently invoked image of life as a "war of all against all," in which civility is merely another weapon in the battle to gain one's ends, is given a particularly disturbing twist because it is enacted by children. Brooks shot an enormous amount of footage, a documentary style ratio of 60:1, and used nonprofessional actors to achieve a raw, visceral realism. With a jauntily ironic score by Raymond Leppard, the film succeeds completely in suggesting the chilling malignity that can lurk beneath a bland exterior.

  • CLASSIC!

    Although it's black and white, the story and acting kept my 17-yr old son so interested and engaged we had to buy it! And he was so excited to get it for Christmas this year! A classic story of how people are people and how we struggle with our animal nature without contstant reminders from society. The child actors in this are truly amazing and will help you get lost in the story.

  • Lord of the Flies - old version - B&W

    Played like new - as expected. Thank You.

  • Excellent quality DVD

    The production quality is first rate. This was purchased to replace a VHS tape and the quality is excellent. I would not hesitate to replace other tapes with other DVDs from essential art house. This will ensure the understanding of future generations of English classes.

  • LOTF Original

    This is the original movie and story line made from the original story and screenplay. Although in black and white, this movie is a bit more interesting than the American remake from the 1990's.
